I'm not sure what you're saying. Cataract surgery (clouding of the eye's lens) requires complete destruction and removal of the formerly focusable natural lens and replacing it with a brownie camera plastic version. I should know...I've had it done. There is no "shaving". It's replacement or nothing, and after that you have zero ability to focus. Most docs have the replacement set on infinity so that you absolutely must have glasses to see anything up close.
